    Ah, I get it. You seem to be confused about the Democrats.

    Why would they increase the minimum wage if that goes against their main corporate sponsors?

    Like… People need to learn some nuance. No, the Dems are super fucking far from perfect, they do what corpos tell them to do, and their primary speciality is doing literally nothing… BUT at least they don’t assault the foundations of US democracy, don’t steal anything that’s not nailed down, don’t create diplomatic catastrophes every Monday, and don’t threaten to nuke their allies. They also, more often than not, vote against brain-dead or dangerous ideas of the Republicans.

    That being said - change is coming. Voters are showing that they want more left-leaning, pro-active representatives, not dead shrimps like Schumer. Hence why we get people like Mamdani elected.
